Hi,
I was wondering whether it is possible to hide a column in a side by side question based on an embedded data value.
I would like to hide the second column if the embedded data field "additional question" meets the set the value of '1'.
Thanks
Mark

if("${e://Field/ED1}"=="1"){
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .SBS2").css("visibility","collapse")

}

Apply if condition on embedded data and use below code in to hide second column:
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .SBS2").css("visibility","collapse")

Thanks Rondev. I'm quite new JS, are you able to provide a bit more of what the code would look like? Eg do i need to add var for the embedded data field?

What would the class name be for a text entry question? I'm trying to do the same for a text entry question and hide the first row but i assume SBS2 can only be used side-by-side?
would it be
if("${e://Field/ED1}"=="1"){
jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .TE1").css("visibility","collapse")
